  • People of Lemmy: would you date a single parent?

  • I dated my now-wife when she was a single parent. So, yes.

  • Many EU countries require ID, and you have to have one when visiting that country, just like locals do. (I had to travel to Spain from the Netherlands when my passport was stuck getting a visa once. So I ended up driving through Belgium and France without a passport, but a driver's license is considered ID for most purposes in all four countries.)

  • This month's electrical horror show: tilted electrical box in the wall

    Jump

  • Yes, all the wires were black when I opened the panel up. 🙈

    Other light switches in my house had no neutral wire, which is surprising to me since our house is not very old. 😥 This one had three wires, so presumably with a neutral... probably because it is right next to a power outlet, unlike the other switches I replaced so far, which let whatever hack the lazy person who wired this up easily add ground.

    I labelled each wire what I thought it should be, based on where they were inserted into the old switch. The old light switch had no markings on it to indicate what each hole was for, but one was red, so almost certainly the live wire. One of the other two was the return wire and the other the neutral.

    I ended up just guessing, which powered up the new Zigbee switch but didn't actually light up the lamp. Swapping those two did the job and now it's perfect in every way, although I'm waiting for some wall filler to dry so the ugly gap at the top can be eliminated....

  • In the EU labels have to have a standard measure, either 100 ml (for things normally handled by volume), or 100 g (for things normally handled by weight).

    They can also have a serving size, which is not standardized as far as I know (some cereal has serving size of 30 g, some 40 g, and so on).

  • Phoronix used to do benchmarking of various Linux flavors and include FreeBSD. It was never the fastest, usually some Intel-optimized distro was, IIRC.

  • You're asking people working for the non-profit to accept lower pay of tens of thousands of dollars? So basically because someone doesn't make a personal sacrifice of a significant fraction of their salary you're not willing to help at all?

    I don't like or accept this logic.
